Just goes to show how difficult making predication about the future is: except for the domestic robot, none of those have been realized yet.

Eh? It's actually not too bad, once you get past the captain-dork-of-the-future outfit that guy has on (replete with white boots):

- Giant tv's - can't say since they don't define giant, but what with projects and huge flat screens, I'd say it's true.

- Flat screen tvs.

- Video camera - they're wrong about the holographs, but right about electronic cameras.

- video disc player - well... not quite, but pretty close.

- most mail will be sent in electronic form. I think that's true - just that the volume of paper mail didn't diminish.
